My mate just bought a xe ghia v8 wagon its a 351 all numbers match and he was told it hadent been rebuilt and i was standard ,(due to him wanting a fresh block) He just took the rocker covers off and foundn its got double valve springs . Did they come out with double valve springs the ghia motors? just curious....

Well yes it could be an original 351 Fairmont wagon just not a Ghia.. But yes still rare as due to the fact that Ford dropped the 351 several months before they dropped the 302 I believe.

My Ford Identification catalogue lists engine code B for 4.9 (
